Along the way, there were plenty of hawthorns and wild pears. Chen Shuning, who never expected to find mountain produce at this time, was like a happy little squirrel, darting from tree to tree, putting them into the bamboo basket behind him, and also sneaking them into his spatial dimension like a thief when He Chaoyang wasn't paying attention.
Throughout the morning, Chen Shuning's eyes were always smiling, and she was incredibly happy.
At noon, He Chaoyang led Chen Shuning to a cave hidden in the canopy of a large tree, with the entrance more than three meters above the ground.
He Chaoyang first climbed up the big tree, then lowered the rope and had Chen Shuning tie it around his waist, and pulled him up.
The two passed through a narrow cave, outside which lay a valley with a wide view.
Wildflowers bloomed all over the valley. I don’t know if it’s because of the geography or other reasons, but in this mountainous region where it is rare to see greenery, here you can see lush green grass and colorful wildflowers.
It wasn't until Chen Shuning reached the center of the valley that he understood why, while the outside was overgrown with weeds, the valley was full of spring.
In the center of the valley, there was a hot spring that gushed from underground. Judging from the steam rising from the spring, the water temperature was not low, so Chen Shuning did not dare to touch it directly with his hands.
Instead, he took a towel used for wiping sweat and soaked it in the hot spring, then tested the temperature of the towel; the temperature was indeed quite high.
Looking at the beautiful scenery and the natural hot spring, Chen Shuning was excited. She grabbed He Chaoyang's hand and shouted excitedly like a child, "Honey, this place is so beautiful! How did you find this hidden place?"
Seeing his wife happy, He Chaoyang felt a deep sense of satisfaction, and he felt that this trip was truly worthwhile.
Seeing Chen Shuning jumping around excitedly like a child, He Chaoyang gently pulled her into his arms and whispered, "I discovered this place by chance during a mission. The scenery here is even more beautiful in winter."
As He Chaoyang spoke, he pointed to the location of the hot spring and continued to describe it: "In winter, there will still be green grass and wildflowers in that place, while the foot of the mountain is covered with snow. It is a valley that presents two completely different seasons, which is especially beautiful."
As Chen Shuning listened to He Chaoyang's description, the beautiful scene began to appear in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh, "I must come and see the beautiful scenery you described in winter."
Her eyes were filled with anticipation, as if she were already in that beautiful valley.
Then, Chen Shuning said wistfully, "It would be even better if there was a small wooden cabin here. That way, we could come here for a while in winter, enjoy the scenery, drink tea, and soak in the hot springs when we have nothing to do. Just thinking about that kind of life is wonderful."
He Chaoyang sensed Chen Shuning's longing for this kind of life. He gently stroked her hair and said with a smile, "Okay, when I have time, I'll build you a small wooden house here. When you have a vacation, I'll come and stay with you for a few days, and we can drink tea and enjoy the snow together."
Actually, He Chaoyang preferred to soak in hot springs with his wife, but he didn't dare say so because he thought she was shy.
At this moment, Chen Shuning suddenly remembered that He Chaoyang might be hungry, and quickly said, "By the way, Brother He, are you hungry? I brought some food, let's eat here."
He Chaoyang naturally had no objection to his wife's words, so the two sat by the hot spring, enjoying the peaceful time, eating their meal and chatting about their future life.
